4 bed semi-detached house for sale

4, Prospect Road, Broadstairs, Kent CT10

*** Previous planning permission (now lapsed) to build an attached four-bedroom townhouse with garage ***

This character-filled Georgian townhouse spans four storeys and is situated just a few minutes from the bustling high street and Viking Bay beach. The lower ground floor features a large kitchen-breakfast room and an interconnecting dining room, perfect for entertaining. On the ground floor, you'll find a welcoming entrance hall, a front-to-back living room with a feature fireplace and a bay window to the front, as well as a study on the mid-landing. The first floor boasts a main bedroom with a feature fireplace, two sets of French doors leading onto a balcony, and a spacious bathroom with a roll-top bath and separate shower. The second floor offers two double bedrooms, one single bedroom, and a shower room. Externally, there is a south-facing courtyard garden with a utility room, a side garden, and parking for two cars at the front. The property previously had planning permission (now lapsed) to build an attached four-bedroom townhouse with a garage, presenting potential to reapply and, if successful, create an ideal Airbnb, an adjoining home for family, or a lucrative investment property. While the property does require some tlc, its character, location, and the potential offered by the side garden make it, in our opinion, an outstanding purchase.

“22 years since I received the keys to Number 4! Which then was very much a house. Fast forward 22 years and the house became a home. Not only has the space provided us with a home where a family could grow its setting and location is perfect.
We have particularly enjoyed how the house allows us all to have our own space (perfect for parents of teenagers!) yet plenty of room to spend time together with friends and family!
We plan to move locally as Broadstairs has our heart but 22 years on recognise we are ready for a change.
I am hopeful that any potential buyer will put their own stamp on number 4 and create as many wonderful memories.”
